Rumorama: Best Buy Reexamining Used Game Market

best_bbuy.jpg

With the news that Toys 'R Us is dabbling is used games, it should come as no shock that a lot of other companies are following suit. Best Buy is no stranger to the used game market, they dipped their toe in it not too long ago and decided it just wasn't for them. Or have they?

A "source" (mysterious...) has told Kotaku that Best Buy is reexamining the used game market in a handful of stores, apparently more than they tried when they decided it wasn't a feasible program. Why not try it after all? They are a mega corp in the midst of a recession.

This is still very much a rumor, and there have been no confirmed stores running a trial program. Still, I wouldn't mind trading in some of my old crappy games toward a new flat screen.

i dont know that i like everyone in world doing used games. unless they do better than Game Stop's pathetic 4 bucks off.

i mean, there WERE some awesome places to get used games cheap. but for whatever reason everyone started taking it to GS. and what you did find at those places was now priced much the same, since they saw that they could get away with it.

also, the boy furthest in the front on the pic accompanying the article- not only is he kinda cute, but those pants are kinda revealing.

And girls who like girls who like rumble packs!
